Iconic MacRobertson Chocolate Factory Conversion | House in Fitzroy

3 Bedroom House in Collingwood North, Fitzroy
Situated within the former MacRobertson Chocolate Factory just moments from Fitzroy’s buzzing dining and arts scene, this luxuriously appointed stay pairs rich history with modern conveniences including air-conditioning, laundry facilities and a rare parking space. A stunning warehouse conversion offers open, light-filled spaces to relax and entertain—complete with a loft-style bedroom—where you can end the day with a leisurely soak in the bathtub and a glass of wine on your private balcony.
Design lovers will appreciate the stylish details of this historic property, transformed by internationally renowned architect Sean Godsell and with thoughtful furnishings, nodding to contemporary art and architecture including that of Mark Tucket, David Bromley, Thonet and more. The building was previously home to the Cherry Ripe, so you can be sure it will offer a memorable stay during your visit to Melbourne.
An industrial-chic makeover in the open-plan living and dining area features high ceilings and large windows that create a sense of spaciousness and maximize natural light. A large, fully equipped kitchen has everything needed to cook up a feast, along with a six-person dining table and additional seating available at the breakfast bar. Kick back on the generously sized sofa with a movie, work from the study nook tucked under the stairs, or head out to your private balcony to enjoy a cozy afternoon wine or a relaxing read in the hammock. Downstairs you’ll also find a generously sized bedroom with a king-size bed, plus a laundry with a washing machine and dryer
On the upper level, you’ll find two spacious loft-style bedrooms including the master with a king-size bed and the third bedroom with a queen-size bed and a skylight window that offers views looking up to the night sky (New York loft-style open plan master and 3rd bedrooms). The master bedroom features a sleek and contemporary ensuite, while the main bathroom downstairs includes a luxurious bathtub where guests can indulge in a leisurely soak.
Both upper bedrooms will let in the morning sun quite early and it is indeed very bright, so bring an extra eye mask in case you need it!
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourself. Please make yourself at home!
